Babestation Webstream

Just a general wondering - why is the viewing window for the BS streams on the bstv website BIGGER during general viewing, but then actually SMALLER when you are actually logged in to the site as a member of same site ?
Surely if it's going to change size it should be the other way around ?

Webstreams were awful quality for me last night - fuzzy and slow/freezing/jumping, I gave up before 1am.

I actually found them ok on the most part last night, but I'm sure their quality could be improved.

Sin TV may have gone under but I'm sure BS could learn from them how to put out quality web-streams.

I'm just going by the caps I did manage to take, very few of them don't have some motion blur / fuzziness.
It's been like that all week.

^ Even by the dismal standards of TS, the streams are crap tonight!

^ Here we go again - TS1 stream is crap again, tonight!

^ Crap? I was far too generous in my description.

Seriously, WTF? Truly awful...

the stream is the same quality as usual (not fantastic, i know) but the problem is that new blue set. (good to see a change) but it's those lights at the back of the set. the lighting should come from behind the camera, not in front. with lights that strong infront of the camera plus an energetic performer the camera struggles to focus and it pixelates/blurs badly. they could solve it easily by removing those lights at the back and lighting the set from behind the camera

I'm not so sure - yes, it's generally crap, but every now and then, like tonight, one or more of their streams seem to take a dive, irrespective of which set is being used (though a particular lighting arrangement can have an effect, of course).

They need to greatly increase the bitrate, but there's not much chance of that, unfortunately.

the set lori is on now on the bs1 stream i'm getting it at 25fps, 480p res and an average bitrate of 800+ kbps. that's not actually bad. whereas the studio 66 stream lucy zara is on is pretty much the same but a lower res, less movement and better lighting which makes it look better quality. honestly if they moved those lights it would make all the difference. studio 66 once had a set where they had multiple bright monitors at the back of the set in front of the camera and it had the same effect. that set didn't last too long
